X-axis labels are not aligned vertical with the data points

[thomas.sayone]

I have a line chart like this. The data point and graph seems little bit forwarded than the x axis label

[Suyash Singh]

@thomas-sayone,

Labels are generally not shown for all the dataPoints & the dataPoints may be rendered beyond the last dataPoint as well. This is because axis labels are rendered with fixed interval.

The plot in your case might be extending beyond the label 6-11-17 as there might be a dataPoint beyond it with difference in some hours. If you are still facing the issue, kindly create a JSFiddle reproducing the issue and share it with us so that we can look into it and help you out.

Does this have any relation with ajax? I used two graphs one using ajax response data and the issue exists with the ajax one, any thing related with the way graphs are rendered?

[Suyash Singh]

@thomas-sayone,

No, the way dataPoints are rendered should not be related to AJAX calls. Can you please create a jsfiddle reproducing the issue so that we can look into it and help you out better?

Hi

I have updated my code, please help me

@mhdajmalik,

Axis labels are not rendered for every dataPoint instead its rendered at every interval. However if you like to show label for every dataPoint, you can use label property instead of x-value. Please take a look at this updated JSFiddle.

I found some things if I put datapoint x value like this { x: new Date(2012, 01, 1), y: 26}, it is working fine

but if we do this in following way it will create problem {x:new Date(“2018-04-09T01:30:00.000Z”),y:32},

Any help

[mhdajmalik]

@Vishwas R Thanks for the reply, but we need date time in X-axis, we can’t change it as the label, bcz date time values getting from the server.

We are working on Licenced Version CanvasJs

please look the following code, I have removed all unwanted lines, please play with that code

Also the same thing will work if we apply new Date(2011,01,01) format, then why it is not working in following format x: new Date(“2018-04-09”)

var chart = new CanvasJS.Chart(“chartContainer”,
{
dataPointMaxWidth: 15,
axisX: {
interval: 1,
intervalType: “day”,
valueFormatString: “M/D”,
},

axisY: {
title: “count”,
gridColor: “#CCC”
},

data: [
{
showInLegend: true,
type: “column”,
legendText: “Units”,
dataPoints: [
{
x: new Date(“2018-04-09”),
y: 32
},
{
x: new Date(“2018-04-10”),
y: 1
}],
}],

});

—————————————————————————————————-

if you change dataPoint with following format, it will work fine

dataPoints: [
{
x: new Date(2018,04,09),
y: 32
},
{
x: new Date(2018,04,10),
y: 1
}],

@mhdajmalik,

You can use one of the valid JavaScript date-time formats. When you use x: new Date(2018,04,09),, 4 corresponds to May where as when you use x: new Date(“2018-04-09”),, 4 corresponds to April. Because of change in month, you may observe label properly positioned to the dataPoint in one case and not positioned in another case. As of now we don’t have option to control the starting point of the axis labels, however you can try axis interval and intervalType to fit into your requirement. If that doesn’t help you out, kindly create jsfiddle with your requirement so that we can understand it better and help you out?
